From Anxiety Press

"In his critical essay on society, Theodor Adorno, made bold claim to the Holocaust having ended poetry as a civilizational aspiration: "[...] to write a poem after Auschwitz is barbaric, and that corrodes also the knowledge which expresses why it has become impossible to write poetry today." The structure of society in this late contemporaneous stage of civilization reprimands the creative forces of barbarity, the vile ethos of spontaneity and differentiation... Everybody is welcome and equal, except for those barbarians who wish it to be otherwise.

The author of this compilation of poems, Ever Further Into Guilt, is truly an abomination in the eyes of society. The glances of the self-anointed, those shallow individuals whose entire lives revolve around their position in the stratosphere of the hierarchical echelon that forms an ever further decaying Western Civilization, can only rebuke and disparage with a scornful yet silent contempt. Here, instead, within the confines of these pages, we find beauty in the chaotic, in the sporadic, in the barbarity of it all. The decline of societal norms begets the ascent of shamelessness in the form of self-denunciation. The anointed, the great peddlers of guilt, rule over the barbarians whom are at odds with the very sentiment. Contrarily, the expression of this poetry as an art is a rejection of such false ideals.

This collection of Poems expresses a testament to the decay of moral standards within the lifetime of the author, as he attempts to cope with the changing world around him. The author tackles the modern challenges facing young white men, whom have forever been at the helm of the world, now experiencing the loosening of their grip over it all. By tackling modernity without filter, the stories contained in this work boldy elaborate such a tale of decay, through various themes, such as: the relationship with women as authority figures, the role of men within the family, the concept of the concrete jungle, the devaluing of education, the shameful embrace of immigration, the ineffectiveness of religious movements, etc. The unrelated poems are esoterically webbed together by such common themes of pessimism. Pessimistic, indeed, and, still, the sense of repudiating forevermore all the abject ideals of modernity alleviates the burdens imposed upon the author arbitrarily. Now, he is left devoid of all arbitration as he embraces the barbarity from within."
